An important network element is the firewall, which separates the local network from the public Internet. Sometimes it also separates the different parts of the local network from each other (stations from servers and so on). Nowadays, companies are gradually switching to new generation firewalls, which, unlike older firewalls, do not only provide penetration into the network regardless of the data flowing through, but allow many other types of data flow control.
What firewalls do we normally supply?
- Sonicwall - the next generation firewall
- Sophos - the next generation firewall
- Mikrotik - classic stateful firewall
We can also supply and manage other brands of firewalls such as Fortigate or Cisco.
What more can you get from the next generation firewall?
- IPS (Intrusion Prevention)
- Web filtering - blocking certain types of websites
- Antivirus and antispam control
- Application control - the ability to disable the communication of a specific application
- HA - high availability solution by connecting two boxes so that if one fails, the other takes over
- SSL/TLS inspection (Deep Packet Inspection) - possibility of inspection even on encrypted content
- Ability to create rules based on the identified user
